S3 Driver

Important

The S3 Driver is now deprecated. If you are still using it, move from the S3 driver to the Amazon driver with the same directives and parameters as they are most of them compatible. Both drivers come with the plugin Cloud S3 or the package bacula-enterprise-cloud-storage-s3.

Note

Starting with Bacula Enterprise 16.0.6, the BlobEndpoint directive needs to be set when Amazon driver is utilized with a non AWS cloud storage.

Default East USA Amazon Region (us-east-1):

Cloud {
  Name = MyCloud
  Driver = "S3"
  HostName = "s3.amazonaws.com"
  BucketName = "BaculaVolumes"
  AccessKey = "BZIXAIS39DP9YNER5DFZ"
  SecretKey = "beesheeg7iTe0Gaexee7aedie4aWohfuewohGaa0"
  Protocol = HTTPS
  UriStyle = VirtualHost
  Truncate Cache = AfterUpload
  Upload = EachPart
  Region = "us-east-1"
  MaximumUploadBandwidth = 5MB/s
}

Amazon Central Europe Region (eu-central-1):

Cloud {
  Name = MyCloud
  Driver = "S3"
  HostName = "s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com"
  BucketName = "BaculaVolumes"
  AccessKey = "BZIXAIS39DP9YNER5DFZ"
  SecretKey = "beesheeg7iTe0Gaexee7aedie4aWohfuewohGaa0"
  Protocol = HTTPS
  UriStyle = VirtualHost
  Truncate Cache = AfterUpload
  Upload = EachPart
  Region = "eu-central-1"
  MaximumUploadBandwidth = 4MB/s
}

For Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) Regions, refer to http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#s3_region to get a complete list of regions and corresponding endpoints and use them respectively as Region and HostName directives.

S3 Object Storages using CEPH Interface

For CEPH interface, use UriStyle = Path and set the BlobEndpoint:

Cloud {
  Name = CEPH_S3
  Driver = "S3"
  HostName = ceph.mydomain.lan
  BucketName = "CEPHBucket"
  AccessKey = "xxxXXXxxxx"
  SecretKey = "xxheeg7iTe0Gaexee7aedie4aWohfuewohxx0"
  Protocol = HTTPS
  Upload = EachPart
  UriStyle = Path            # Must be set for CEPH
  BlobEndpoint = "https://ceph.mydomain.lan"
}
